We both loved our stay, but I think our cat was the one who enjoyed himself the most! Not only was this home cozy, accessible, and convenient, it was the perfect amount of adventure for our kitty. The backyard and surrounding neighborhood were fun for him to explore. This was our first getaway as a family and we could not have had a more positive experience! Would definitely recommend!

Great place for our UP adventure. Loved how close the house was to Lake Superior coastline, and the place served as a great ‘home-base’ during our activities and travels. We had 4 adults, so the bed situation was fine. Could’ve used AC during our stay given the heat, but it was peak summer. The downstairs toilet is a trip to behold. Consider this a 1.25 bathroom property :)

Really enjoyed our stay in this quaint older home. Only a couple of minute walk to the beach and close to everything in the cute village of Ontonagon. House had all of the amenities we needed and was pet friendly as well. Highly recommend.

Owner is Very Attentive

There were a few issues with cleanliness, but the owner was great to work with. Having said that the house is old and the floor upstairs is very slanted. Definitely not what we were expecting for the cost to rent.

The visit was perfect. The property was well cared for, clean and comfortable. It was winter and there was a lot of snow but the house was warm! The owner was easy to work with and had a plow truck come out to clean up the drive-way. We will stay again, in fact, already have our reservations.
